- Although this sauce is one of the most simple, it is very rarely that it is well made.
- Mix with four ounces of butter, a desert spoonful of flour, when well mixed, add three table spoonsful of water, put it into a clean saucepan kept for the purpose, and stir it carefully one way till it boils;
- white sauce to throw over vegetables served on toast, is made in the same way, only putting milk and water, instead of water only.
